Liu Yiting thought of the old man who was with her just now, and suddenly said that her status was low, and she was so angry that her heart ached.
"By the way, why did the madam come to see my husband?"
Han Shu glanced at Liu Yiting, whose face was red with anger, and sneered in his heart.
She was just too stupid before.
Competing for favor with a person who was sent into the house as a concubine by his family.
I know my appearance well, and I can't compare with Liu Yiting. She is younger than me, and his son is older than this concubine, so how can I compare with her.
When I was about to die from illness, I figured it out.
His eldest son is dead, and he still has a younger son. This son strives for success and got good grades last autumn. Although he only won the same Jinshi in the end, he was not bad at all.
In addition, her younger brother is now the deputy minister of the Privy Council. She is a strong supporter and competes with a concubine for favor. Isn't she lowering her status?
No matter what, as long as she holds on, no one can shake her from this competitive position.
Han Shu smiled: "It's nothing big. It's my brother's thirtieth birthday in half a month. He just happened to be promoted to Deputy Privy Councilor. I was wondering if you would like to come to Beijing with me to congratulate him."
In previous years when he returned to Kyoto, Gu Mingjue was busy with official duties and never showed up.
Gu Mingjue thought for a moment and said, "It's true that I should go and congratulate you, but autumn is still a month away. Although I am not the officer in charge, I still have a lot of things to do and I really can't get away."
Han Shu still smiled: "It doesn't matter. I'll go back to the courtyard, sir!"
Han Shu left, just like that peacefully.
Liu Yiting closed the study door, feeling incredible.
"Sir, madam?"
Liu Yiting pointed to her head: "Is there something wrong here? Why does it look like a different person?"
"No nonsense."
Gu Mingjue shouted: "You are a concubine, and you must have a minimum of respect for my wife. Otherwise, if she gets angry, even I won't be able to protect you."
Liu Yiting: "..."
You didn't have this attitude before.
Liu Yiting felt that her position was in jeopardy. If the master didn't protect her, what hope would she have?
No, she had to do something to let the master know her importance.
Not long after Liu Yiting left, Gu Nanshan came to the study.
Naturally, Gu Mingjue asked someone to come.
"Father, are you looking for a child?"
"Well, sit down."
Gu Mingjue was still very satisfied looking at his son.
"How was the investigation on the Lu family's matter?"
When Gu Nanshan heard his father ask about the treasure map, he immediately said seriously: "My son has found out that after the Lu family separated from the Fan family, they first went to the north. As for where to settle in the north, we don't know yet. Then he took his tribe to the west and settled in Lantian."
"Is this news reliable?"
"My son has only been here for a long time, and this is all he found. They acted very low-key. The old servants who followed them back then are all dead. Now there is no news from the servants at all. It was my son who spent a lot of money to get out of here." From this side branch, one can hear the deeds of their ancestors."
If this branch of the Lu family did not lie, then after the original treasure hiding and the separation of the Fan and Lu clans, this Lu family is indeed the most likely to be involved in the original treasure hiding.
"Who is in charge of the Lu family now?"
"Lü 衡" (fen) is the second sound.
Gu Mingjue frowned: "So it's him."
"Father, do you recognize this person?"
Gu Mingjue shook his head: "We don't know each other, but fifteen years ago, your grandfather was still an official in Kyoto, and one day he was a guest at a big man's house. It happened that someone died at that time, and there was a big fuss, which involved him, so up to now Some impressions.”
"You must follow up on this matter personally and tell me immediately if there is any progress. By the way, your cousin stayed in Kyoto for a month or two and returned to Jiangning Mansion yesterday. Do you know about this?"
"Not yet."
Gu Nanshan said: "However, since he has decided to end this year and has already arrived at the state capital, why don't you see him looking back home?"
It has to be said that Gu Nanshan knows how to add fuel to the fire.
Gu Mingjue was originally unhappy about this matter, but now that his son said this, he felt that Gu Qingjue, a bastard, was ungrateful.
Do you think that with the title of Prince Huanlin, your career will be smooth sailing from now on?
Still too young.
If he doesn't know the doorway inside, if he hits the south wall and wants to come back to him, the treatment will be different.
"I even put myself down and went to Wangjiacun in person, but he didn't even want to let go. If he hadn't still held the half of the treasure map in his hand and couldn't touch him, would he still be alive now?"
"Father, doesn't his fiancée still have adoptive parents? We can't touch her younger brother and sister after they go to the sect, but the adoptive parents can't touch her anymore?"
Gu Mingjue laughed instantly: "My son still has a way."
August 20th.
The autumn of the third year of Qingli begins.
Qiuwei is the Jinshi examination presided over by the state general magistrate, and the examinations in other subjects are presided over by Zhou Zhilushi joining the army.
What is the role of the state general magistrate? He is an official sent by the imperial court to the various states to supervise the magistrates. What is the purpose of joining the army to record affairs? He is an official who assists the governor to inspect the various Cao Cao.
If the examiner is not suitable to invigilate the exam, the state judge must select another examiner.
Although the official position of a state magistrate is not, strictly speaking, as high as that of a state magistrate, he is directly appointed by the emperor to assist in state affairs and has the right to report directly to the emperor.
The prefect didn't dare to mess with him.
The general judge of Jiangning Prefecture is a descendant of the Wang family in Qingzhou, named Wang Chengxi.
The Wang family in Qingzhou has been loyal and loyal for generations. Their ancestors and grandchildren have all inherited their ancestors' tradition of "cultivating one's moral character, managing one's family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world", and enjoy a very high reputation.
Gu Mingjue didn't dare to offend such a wealthy family.
Qiuwei mainly examines three subjects: classics and meanings, poems and poems, and policy theory.
Jingyi tests students’ understanding and understanding of Confucian classics, such as the Four Books and Five Classics.
Poetry and Fu test students' literary talent and expressive ability, including writing poems and Fu.
Policy theory is easier to understand, and it tests Xuzi’s views on current affairs.
If there are celebrations such as the birthday of the imperial court or the coronation of a new emperor, temporary additions will be made. This is called enke.
There are three exams in Qiuwei, namely the classics and meanings, poetry, and policy mentioned above. Each exam lasts three days, so you need to stay in the exam room for nine days.
This not only tests students' knowledge, but also requires physical fitness.
How could a weak body withstand such a high-pressure nine days, so Bai Shiqian did not participate in the Qiu Wei immediately after he recovered, and took a full year or two to rest until he was confident of getting through it before deciding to end it.
This time in Qiu Wei, there were several students from their Chongyang Academy. When they came in, they met and they all came over to say hello to Gu Qingjue.
Gu Qingjue really had no impression of those people.
Today’s update is finished.
